Plans for Pussycat Dolls dolls scrapped

Toy maker Hasbro has scrapped plans for Pussycat Dolls dolls after a campaign by US parents led by Lisa Flythe of Brooklyn.

Plans to make Pussycat Dolls dolls (you get me? - dolls made to look like the Pussycat dolls, yes?) have been scrapped following a public outcry. Toy makers Hasbro have bowed to pressure in their decision from an organised campaign by US parents, led by Lisa Flythe of Brooklyn, who has a 4-year-old daughter.

The New York Daily News quote Flythe as saying: "Every single person I spoke to was shocked that this would even be considered. It could be an appropriate adult entertainment product, but definitely not for kids."

I'm not sure that Pussycat Dolls are the best thing for adults, either.
